Major Product Application

Thermoplastic resin obtained by polymerizing propylene
PP has excellent tensile and impact strength, and good heat and chemical resistance

  • Homopolymer: Comprised of a single bond between propylene monomers, homopolymer is used for general purposes, such as home appliances and industrial components
  • Block (impact) Copolymer: Made by giving impact resistance to a homopolymer, a block copolymer is used to produce products that require high impact strength, including automobiles and electric and electronic products.
  • Random copolymer: Made by giving transparency to a homopolymer, a random copolymer is used for packaging containers for food.
    Applications

  • Injection : Furniture, boxes, and outdoor chair
  • Yarn : Sacks, ropes, and fishing nets
  • Extrusion : Packaging film and pipes
  • Fiber : Carpets, diapers, and non-woven fabrics

PE (Polyethylene): Copolymer created by the polymerization of acrylonitrile, butadiene, and styrene

PE(Polyethylene)

  • High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE): Polyethylene with a density of 0.94 or higher. Used for pipes, chemical containers, etc.
  • Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE): Resin created by the polymerization of ethylene. LLDPE has excellent processability and transparency and is used for agricultural film, packaging film, wraps, etc.
  • Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE): Polyethylene with a density lower than 0.94. Mainly used for polyethylene packing and food packaging film.

Applications

  • Injection : Furniture, boxes, pallets, etc.
  • Blow molding : Cosmetic containers, detergent bottles, etc.
  • Yarn : Fishing nets, sacks, tarpaulins, etc.
  • Extrusion(film) : Greenhouse film, plastic bags, etc.
  • Extrusion(pipe) : Portable water service pipes, sewer pipes, gas pipes, etc.

Thermoplastic, also known as polyvinyl chloride or vinyl chloride resin.

Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)

Applications

  • Pipes, cable sheaths, rubber gloves, wallpaper, etc.

Polystyrene (PS)

PS/GPPS/HIPS

    • General Purpose Polystyrene (GPPS): Excellent transparency, heat resistance and colorability.
    • Suitable for food packaging.
    • High Impact Polystyrene (HIPS): Created by dissolving synthetic rubber onto a styrene monomer. Increased impact strength due to an added rubber content of 5 to 15%.

    Applications

    • GPPS : Disposable cups, transparent parts of home electronics
    • HIPS : Electronic appliances for homes, yogurt cups

Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS)

Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS)

    • Copolymer created by the polymerization of acrylonitrile, butadiene, and styrene.
    • Good surface gloss, excellent mechanical and electrical properties, and excellent chemical resistance.

    Applications

    • General ABS : Pipes, vacuum cleaners, washing machines, telephones, etc.
    • Flame retardant ABS : Monitors, copiers, OA devices, etc.
    • Transparent ABS : Computer peripherals, home appliances, toys, etc.
    • Heat resistance ABS : Automobile interior and exterior materials, housings of electric and electronic products, etc.

Expandable Polystyrene (EPS)

Expandable Polystyrene (EPS)

    • Resin created by expanding polystyrene with the application of a foaming agent.
    • White, lightweight, and excellent in water resistance, heat insulation, sound absorption, and shock absorption

    Applications

    • General Purpose EPS : Fish box, Grape box, electronics LCD package
    • Flame retardant EPS : Construction Block, Panel

Polycarbonate (PC)

  • Thermoplastic with a chain structure comprised of bisphenol A and phosgene
  • Engineering plastic with high impact strength
  • High heat resistance, good low-temperature properties, stable against light, and low oxidation during processing
    Applications

 

  • Optical Media : CDs, DVDs, etc.
  • Medical use : Syringes, lenses, etc.
  • Automotive : Head lamps, car tail lamps, etc.
  • Kitchen Goods : Food containers, microwave components, etc.
